Bonding Analysis • Commonwealth issued debt • HRTAC issued toll debt • Analysis will evaluate potential benefits of using TIFIA loans Unlocking Hampton Roads • Based on the Traffic & Revenue scenarios identified, will evaluate the amount of debt that can be leveraged under different debt authorizations • This will include: 26

HRTPO Sets Express Lane Policy • A consistent Express Lanes Network that begins on I-64 at Jefferson Avenue in Newport News, proceeds along I-64 through Bowers Hill in Chesapeake and continues along I-664 to I-64 in the vicinity of the Hampton Coliseum. • That the Express Lanes Network be a consistent HOT-2 network, with one HOT lane and one part-time HOT shoulder lane where practical and necessary. • That to minimize impacts to the Region’s motorists, wherever practicable, the roadways that comprise the Express Lanes Network be restricted to HOT operation during high volume traffic times and be open to all traffic outside of the restricted periods. • That funding and operation of the Express Lanes Network be managed by HRTAC. • That a free alternative (general purpose lanes) be available throughout the roadway system associated with the Express Lanes Network. Unlocking Hampton Roads • The Hampton Roads Transportation Planning Organization has endorsed the Hampton Roads Regional Express Lanes Network as follows: 27

HRTPO Recommends to HRTAC • Prioritize optimal congestion pricing. • Develop tolling approaches that mitigate impacts on Hampton Roads residents, including options that maximize revenue collection on weekends. • Ensure a free alternative (general purpose lanes) be available throughout the roadway system associated with the Express Lanes Network. • Funding, operation, and the use of toll revenues of the Express Lanes Network to be managed by HRTAC directly or indirectly through the master tolling agreement. Unlocking Hampton Roads • Hampton Roads Transportation Planning Organization has recommended that HRTAC consider the following items when developing the master tolling agreement with VDOT: 28

Next Steps • HRTAC will also work with the HRTPO and impacted jurisdictions to study the remaining projects not selected in the SEIS Alternative A (Regional Connectors Study) • HRTAC will continue to support VDOT in project development efforts for the Bowers Hill Interchange and the I-64/I-264 environmental and preliminary engineering studies Unlocking Hampton Roads • HRTAC will continue work to develop solutions and continue construction of HRTAC’s approved/funded projects and advance short and long range plans • Continue public discussion on how to calibrate funding options, advance project readiness, and continue preparations for future bonding/financing of projects 30
